Hunter Squad: Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti Overclocked Roundup. Page 10

According to Nvidia’s classification, GeForce GTX 560 Ti is a “hunter”. Today we are going to meet an entire squad of hunters from different manufacturers: EVGA, MSI, Palit and Zotac. Which one is going to be the best?

Performance in RPG

Dragon Age II

Each of our GeForce GTX 560 Ti cards has problems in this game. The GeForce GTX 570, on its part, is not so disappointing, yet its performance is inferior to that of the Radeon HD 6950. The latter is in fact the only graphics card in this review to deliver a comfortable frame rate at 1600x900 with the highest graphics quality settings and FSAA.

Mass Effect 2

We enforced full-screen antialiasing using the method described in our special Mass Effect 2 review.

Like in the other tests, the best speed is delivered by the MSI card but the game doesn’t really call for such heavy overclocking. The reference GeForce GTX 560 Ti is more than enough for comfortable play even in the Ultra HD mode. Of course, it is quite an achievement to beat the GeForce GTX 570, but one of little practical worth.
